Sorry to hear about your loss.We purchased a dog on December 17th of last year,a chocolate lab that was 2 months old and weighed 14 lbs.Today he ways close to 90lbs.Our 4 year old thinks she can ride him and he just takes all the abuse.It's great to see him at the end of the day and i truly understand why they refer to dogs as mans best friend.Again JP sorry to hear about your loss.

JP, there is a marvelous, marvelous essay by the great American playwright, Eugene O'Neill, "The Last Will and Testament of an Extremely Distinguished Dog" that I recommend highly. You can find it on Amazon. I found a site where a woman posted part of it, but it needs to be read in its entirety (all 2 pages of it). I found it immensely comforting when our dog died.

Actually, I recommend it for all dog lovers! I read it as a child, but didn't know who the author was and just about flipped as an adult when I found out it was O'Neill. Didn't know the grouchy old drunk had it in him.
